Should I take the roadside field sobriety tests?

No. Politely decline. I always recommend against taking the
Roadside Field Sobriety Tests. (HGN, Walk & Turn, One Leg Stand and Portable
Breath Test) In Washington State or Seattle, these tests are
voluntarily,
unreliable and difficult to complete in the best of conditions. (think traffic flying
by in the dead of night, bad weather conditions among many other factors)
Remember, you are simply building a DUI case against yourself. (
usually not a good idea) You can be cooperative and respectful of the officer or trooper without
taking these tests.
